I know this is pure vanity, but here it is.
I'm joining a new company and they have a "Get to know your fellow employee" kind of thing. They ask your name, marital status, favorite book (The Bible), movie (Road Warrior), music (Jazz), web site (Free Republic), etc..
My dilemma is I need a favorite quote. Some quotes are good for certain situations and some are not. As I respect and admire my Freeper family, I ask for your help.
P.S. When asked; "what you want your co-workers to know about you", I penned a very pro-Second Amendment statement.
TOPICS: Miscellaneous; Philosophy

A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects. -- Robert Anson HeinleinI agree, but I only have space for about 10 words.

If movie quotes count...
As God is my witness, as God is my witness, they're not going to lick me! I'm going to live through this, and when it's all over, I'll never be hungry again - no, nor any of my folks! If I have to lie, steal, cheat, or kill! As God is my witness, I'll never be hungry again.

Use this as a toast:
Here's to it, from it and to it again.
You'd better do it when you get to it.
Because if you don't do it when you get to it,
You may never get to it to do it again.
